University Master's Degree that entails a specialization, of an academic and research nature, in relation to analysis, detection and its application to attention for the development of mathematical competence.
The program revolves around four axes: the analysis of mathematical skills, the development and learning process of mathematical thinking, the analysis of the latest scientific contributions, and attention to learning difficulties by students in mathematics.
In this way, the proposal is based on the need to carry out research in the area from an integrating perspective, which harmonizes the relationships between research in mathematics didactics and teaching, with the aim of guiding teachers who show interest in starting as researchers in the area of didactics of mathematics.
This comes from the need to provide professionals in the educational field with methodologies and techniques necessary to develop research in the area of didactics of mathematics. In this way, it is aimed at graduates interested in the initial or continuous training of mathematics teachers and in research in Didactics of Mathematics, whose professional profile is oriented towards research and innovation in the didactics of mathematics, as well as for Mathematics, Early Childhood and Primary Education teachers who want to improve their didactic training linked to the latest scientific contributions in the area.
As the culmination of the year in which the V Centenary of the death of Antonio de Nebrija is commemorated, an exhibition was organized at the National Library of Spain that shows the intellectual profile of the first Spanish humanist, without forgetting him as a man, researcher and professor through his enormous work.
Student profile: It is aimed at graduates interested in the initial or continuous training of mathematics teachers and in research in the Didactics of Mathematics, whose professional profile is oriented towards research and innovation in the didactics of mathematics, as well as for Mathematics, Early Childhood and Primary Education teachers who want to improve their didactic training linked to the latest scientific contributions in the area.
The recommended admission profile is that of a university graduate or equivalent (bachelor's, associate's or master's degree) in studies in the educational field: Early Childhood or Primary Education, Pedagogy, Psychopedagogy. Likewise, given the multidisciplinary nature of the program, students who have completed the Master's Degree in Teacher Training for Compulsory Secondary Education and Baccalaureate, Vocational Training and Language Teaching, or the Teaching Aptitude Certificate (CAP) will be able to access this Master's Degree.
Graduate profile: The profile of the future graduate will be characterized by having specialized knowledge in the area that will allow them to lead and develop research or educational innovation projects in relation to the development of mathematical competence.
The acquired competences will allow graduates to carry out their professional work in educational centers (regulated or non-regulated), as experts with the ability to respond to the demand (professional, social, academic and research) that arises from different fields in relation to education, such as: pedagogical advisors in the area of mathematics; authors of educational material; digital resource designers; educational entities; observatories; research centers, etc., providing a high degree of specialization for the design of research in relation to the development of mathematical thinking and/or the mathematics teaching-learning process.
